Will an editor such as Notepad++ give you such information? UTF-8 is a multi-byte character set, so SBDATACONN (IBM-1047,IBM-1208) is not legal. I don't know whether MBDATACONN (IBM-1047,IBM-1208) is supported. Sooner or later you're likely to encounter characters not all in any single SBCS code page; there's no one that works for all. If the objective is merely to store the data on the z as opaque data, SBDATACONN (IBM-1047,IBM-819) would make the round trip, desktop -> z -> desktop without loss of information. But it would be illegible on the z. I took a guess from your return address and looked at https://www.courts.wa.gov/ where I see: TRANSLATIONS 中文形式/Chinese 한국어서류/Korean Pусский/Russian Español/Spanish Tiếng Việt/Vietnamese How many of those do you need to support? Is UTF-EBCDIC a possibility? (Others here would know better than I.) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-EBCDIC What's the CCSID of UTF-EBCDIC? Does FTP support UTF-EBCDIC?
